If you don’t like going to discos or pubs, but you would like to go to a party, you can go to one of the many "fiestas" (festivals) that are celebrated in Castile and León.

Almost every village and small town in the province has its own day of festivity, which has ancestral origins. On those festivity days, people commemorate a Saint or a historical event. Or the seasons, the sowing, and the harvest of the crops is celebrated.

Usually the Fiestas are held outside, for instance, on a field or town square, and there is usually a live band playing. Also, there is always a bar at the party where you can order drinks.

A lot of villages and cities also have markets where, for example, handmade objects or cattle are sold.
